Beam Up's musical love affair started off by playing trumpet in a Big Band Swing as a youth. Since then he's been performing and (later on) Djing music from all 5 continents. Migrating to Melbourne in '89 saw him host a 12 year long weekly drivetime, freeform radio show on Melbourne's PBSFM. He formed and played in several bands during the ‘90s & early ‘00s in Melbourne’s overactive live scene, touring AU & NZ widely. The non radio Djing started in the mid 90s with Australia’s developing outdoor party scene. Playing as DJ Delay as well as live Beam Up sets, many a chill floor was tilted sideways from his musical selection & projection.

Since '02, he's been living between Melbourne, Osaka & Berlin. In Osaka, he joined the solid reggae scene there, being a guest member of 'Bush Of Ghosts' and DJing regular underground parties across Japan. After a year long pause in Berlin, he landed back in Melbourne ('06) and wasted no time co-founding the first regular Balkan music night the city had seen, whilst continuing to spin dubwise music, now the 2 halves of his record collection were united. In '08 he brought the Balkan & dubwise spirit back to Berlin, DJing all over Europe and releasing 2 remix albums that pushed the boundaries of East European traditional music in a club context. Since settling in Berlin he’s also found time to produce generative sound installations for Australian painter John Aslanidis. The two have exhibited extensively in NYC, Berlin and Australia since '11. Beam Up has been actively releasing and playing live shows since then. Forward the bass!
